Abstract: The fat separator comprises five chambers for fat separation, where first chamber is a collection chamber (1) having an inlet (6) for the waste water and a coarse sieve (9), and the second chamber is a sedimentation chamber (2) that is arranged below the collection chamber. The sedimentation chamber possesses an overflow (14) to which a third chamber joins the actual fat separation chamber. The fifth chamber is an outlet chamber that forms a common container and separates the third and fifth chambers through a vertical separation wall. The fat separator comprises five chambers for fat separation, where first chamber is a collection chamber (1) having an inlet (6) for the waste water and a coarse sieve (9), and the second chamber is a sedimentation chamber (2) that is arranged below the collection chamber. The sedimentation chamber possesses an overflow (14) to which a third chamber joins the actual fat separation chamber. The fifth chamber is an outlet chamber that forms a common container and separates the third and fifth chambers through a vertical separation wall. The separation wall possesses an opening in the height of the base of the container. A fourth chamber is connected as fat collection chamber over a horizontally arranged skimming slit. A sludge collection container is arranged below the sedimentation chamber. The skimming slit is arranged against the overflow slit. A filter frame is arranged in the form of a drawer for the reception of the coarse sieve, which is a loosely inserted sieve plate and possesses a counter slope to the base of the filter frame. The base of the filter frame is lean and possesses an outflow at its deepest place. The base of the sedimentation chamber is conically tapered toward bottom. The sludge collection container is arranged at the deepest place of the base. A shut-off valve is arranged between the sedimentation chamber and the sludge collection container. The overflow is a slit that extends itself horizontally over the total width of a side wall of the sedimentation chamber. The fat collection chamber is mounted on the fat separation chamber. The separation wall is vertically and conically arranged between the fat separation chamber and the outlet chamber. A wiper is arranged in the fat separation chamber in the height of the fluid surface radially movable to the separation wall. The skimming slit is a ramp. The outlet chamber possesses a flow that is arranged in such a way that the fluid level remains in the fat separation chamber below the skimming slit. The flow lies 1 cm under the skimming slit. An emptying connection exists itself in the fat separation chamber and is arranged below the sludge collection container. A vent connection is arranged in the cover over the outlet chamber. A revision flap for controlling the running-out water is arranged in the cover over the outlet chamber. The total housing of the fat separator consists of stainless steel plate and is sealed through seal by toggle bolts towards outside.
